Aramis

Aramis Ramirez now says that he would be willing to return to the Cubs because they brought in Theo Epstein.

But here's the thing, A-Ram. Now that the Cubs have brought in Epstein, it's not just a matter of saying "I'll come back" anymore. Maybe Epstein doesn't want you.

It's like a guy who dumps his girlfriend because she put on a few pounds, and then when she loses the weight after the breakup says..."You know what, I'll take you back now." Not so fast there, hotshot. Now she's got lots of other guys to choose from too, and some of them may be far better long-term prospects than you are.
